The idea of making land into personal property I guess.

There must have been people from the start smart enough to realize the land supply is unknown, but the human supply is known to be infinite, so expansionism will result in running out of land, forcing us to collectivism.

People must have ignored these arguments based on bullshit and just pretended they didn't have to do collectivism, except this one huge collective lie

*could result, not will result (since land supply was unknown when this idea started)

you guess? there is a LOT of land out there to be had! i think that is the real lie... that having your own space is somehow wrong... screw that!

There's not unlimited land on Earth but there's an unlimited supply of humans

Instead of sharing that burden in a balanced way, there are just a small number of humans who get to have all the land they want

They control the land by force and it's wrong but they call it "ownership" and suddenly people are ok with it
